  • Wow you are lucky...I probably spent 20 minutes talking to the doctor but I also had to go through a 600+ questionnaire!

  • I am not sure why everyone stresses about seeing the physcologist but we do. Then we find out it was no big thing and we worried for nothing. LOL.....Glad things went well for you!

    Told ya so, told ya so -- or I would have had you asked. Did you ask? Did I answer? What did I say? You are sound of mind, such a nice thing.

Hahaha....yep, I had the joy after my psych clearance of being able to tell my husband and teenagers, "Ha! I'm NOT crazy....I've been tested!" Phew

I was charged $175 and didn't get my money's worth. lol Most of the time I felt like I was the shrink and he was on the couch. He talked about his upcoming knee surgery (the topic was surgery) for 20 minutes and the rehab he'll do for it. lol I didn't really care, he did send the report to my surgeon immediately although they misplaced it and we had to hunt him down during his recuperation to tell the nurse where copies of my report were.

My therapist said that I used all the right verbiage and that I'm so positive!! And after showing pics of my 6 year old who is so adorable by the way she sent me on my way!! But I must credit not just the research I've being doing but even the things I'm learning on here made me well prepared????

I was definitely nervous about my appointment, but I filled out all the paperwork and answered all the questions she asked and it turns out I'm perfectly sane (and mentally prepared for my revision)

All that stressing for nothing!
